We know that for many of you, Minsmere provides enjoyment and solace in the natural world throughout these challenging times. In line with Government guidance on essential, daily exercise outdoors, during the Second Lockdown, our car park, trails and toilets remain open for you to visit. Please follow all current Government guidance around social distancing, who you can visit with, hygiene and follow all signage on-site. We urge you to also follow Government guidance on non-essential travel and please stay local to your nearest reserves and greenspaces.

Our visitor centre, hides, shop and café will be closed from Thursday 5 November for the duration of this lockdown. We are also not running events. However, we'll provide an outdoor Covid-secure welcome point when staffing allows, where our friendly team will be on-hand to answer questions. Entry fees to Minsmere will apply at a reduced rate whilst these restrictions remain in place to help to continue to manage Minsmere's amazing habitats.

Our car park and nature trails will be open from dawn to dusk, and the toilets will be open from 10 am to 4 pm. 

We continue to ask that all visitors, except those who are exempt from doing so, please wear a face-covering while in our toilets.
